+\subsection{Modify Folder: sorting the media}%
+\label{sub:sorting_media}
+\index{folder modify}
+
+In \CGG{} all the virtual mediafiles loaded in the \textit{Resources} window are collected in the \texttt{Media} folder without any kind of organization and sorting other than alphabetical. The Media folder is considered a \textit{master} folder because it is the basis for every other new folder we create. Another \textit{master} folder is \texttt{Clips}, and in fact we can create new clips folders as well. If we do editing of large projects containing numerous mediafiles, a rational and selective organization of the source material becomes necessary. In fact, having the sources organized in folders, where they can be found and used easily, makes subsequent editing much faster, as well as minimizing confusion and the possibility of errors. This step, which is fundamental in the pro environment, is called \textit{Logging} and also includes \textit{screening} individual mediafiles in the Viewer window; \textit{renaming} them rationally; and adding labels and descriptions in the \textit{metadata}.
+
+We start by creating one or more new folders (MediaUserBin). These will be empty and we should populate them with the mediafiles contained in the master Media folder. There are two options: manual \textit{Drag and Drop} or automatic populating by setting \textit{filters} (Smart Bins).
+\paragraph{Drag and Drop:} you drag mediafiles into the new folder one by one or in selected groups. The starting master folder can only be \texttt{Media} (or \texttt{Clips}, if we have created a new clip folder). Dragging is done by preserving the absolute path of the sources. If you open Modify Folder window you will notice that each imported mediafile occupies a different row characterized by its own path and name. See figure~\ref{fig:modify-target}. The \texttt{Value} field containing paths can contain only 63 characters, and it may happen to find the names cut off. The full path and name can be found by right-clicking on the row, but this is inconvenient and time-consuming. The best solution is to drag the mediafiles while holding down the \texttt{Shift} key; this will return the relative path instead of the absolute path, with space gain.

-To delete the entire set of files listed on the filter rule, highlight the rule line and hit the \textit{Del} button.
+\paragraph{Filters:} you do automatic populating using filters (Smart Bins mode). You set the values of the \texttt{Enabled}; \texttt{Target}; \texttt{Op} and \texttt{Value} fields to make up the required filtering. The folder will populate automatically by pulling from the \texttt{Media} master folder. The filter is the result of one row, but we can do more sophisticated filtering by adding more rows. The process will start from the first row propagating to subsequent rows always following the pattern from top to bottom. See figure~\ref{fig:modify_folder}.

To add a new filter rule, click on the \textit{Add} button which will automatically add a default line after any current lines.
-The default line will be a line that matches everything in the \textit{master} Media folder which is \textit{Or Patterns Matches *}.
